LATHEFIING APPARATUS.

.l 'To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, HERMANN F. SCHEL- LiNG a citizen of the United States, resid' at -Wzeehawken, inthe county of Hudson iiiil 5 State of New Jersey, have invented newand useful Im rovements in Lathering Apparatus, of which the following is a specification. In barber-shops the lather is frequently rubbed by the barbers byhand onto'the faces ro of the customers. l A p This 'apparatus is to rub or distribute the lather over the face mechanically.

This invention is set forth in the following e annexed drawings, in which- Figure 1 is an elevation of a shaft with a tip or terminal embodying this invention.

Fig. 2 is a section of Fig.'1. Fig. 3 is an-edge view of the stem of a tip or terminal. F' 4 shows the manner of mounting or suspen a shaft.

The :pparatus com rises the usual flexible `rotary 25 shaft is shown at' a and is provided with the usual clamp or connecting means b for devtachably engaging a tool. f.

` l 'The tip or terminal c for distributing the lather over the face, as shown, is a iece of 3o horn or suitable material tapered an fluted.

-The soap or lather is applied as usual to the 4face by a brush The tip or distributor -c while rotating or oscillating is then passed over the face and has the effect of beating 35 and rubbing: the lather yover the skin'and also speciamio of Letters retest.'

of softening the beard, and the hand of the barber need not be ein loyedfor this purpose. This tip being suitably lluted or channeled will cause the formation of foam or the distribution of lather. The fluted or channeled surface need not be of the exact conigura` tion shown, as its can be varied With-l out interfering with its utility for the purlpose intended.

Thev shaft a can be sus ended from a suitable motor, electric or ot er kind, 4, or mounted in an suitable way.

A handle or ail d can be applied to the device for convenient manipulation, but isI not necessary. What'I claim asm 'l invention, and desire tosecureb Letters atent, is-
